Bread Is From EarthDeep warm-blooded
Dark brown
Multigrain Manna is from Heaven.
Sometimes,
OK, most times,
I'm not actively building a cooperatively co-invested
residential
and environmental health system,
or even a local family-safe
polyculturally resilient community
Because I am too capitalistically infested
with buying and selling

In My Dreams
The day had only just begun,
The morning sun still on the rise,
The clouds were almost few as none,
White wisps shown in a clear blue sky,
A day to delight anyone
Who saw it with her own two...

Welcome HomeIn due season you’re going to reap
Everything that you have sown
The seeds in you will start to sprout
And GOD will make your purpose known
We all have one including you
Through revelation it will be shown
Wait upon...

Coming Back Home
Cold winds blow outside so very strong
Only to whisper you’re not where you belong.
Motionless sitting morose by the fireplace
Insipid frozen heart in the glow I gently place
Not knowing when it will again throb and melt...

ForeverForever
Time is a word, without relevance or worth.
Conceived by mankind, a distance from birth.
If birth is the beginning, and death the end.
A concept of life, where souls never blend
So...

Oh my God they said when they looked at his passport
Multiple entries border crossings migration and search of
Inner Self and ironically a fix...

Deserted Streets
Sometimes I traipse
Through this old place,
Hoping for peace
In solitude.
Deserted streets,
Where once the lights,
Would fluctuate
In fitful mood.
That old dance hall,
Our crowd would fill
When darkness fell
As night's prelude.
The dancing done,
I'd walk you home,
While my heart shone
In gratitude.
But...

The House Down The RoadA tad over three blocks down Merion Lane
on the left is, an idyllic Cape Cod.
I must've passed it a thousand times
my own picturesque, perfect, postcard place
couched in the right light, dappling rays
fresh-painted, white fence, ruby...

Coming Back Home
Childhood memories bring fun thoughts to mind,
Old friends, family, and innocent times.
Merry-go-rounds, like wishes left behind,
Illusions, mimicking magic sometimes.
No other place feels quite as good as home,
Going back reinforces that feeling.
But nostalgia...

Home-Grown Horror
It is time to break the silence
That surrounds domestic violence,
Time to stop husbands from killing
Wives they claim to be unwilling,
Time for the government to act,
Before more deaths become a fact.
Most of us can make little...

On The Trail X Is My Road Thus EndedDo tell me Sir, was one so loved
That women fell at sun-dried Feet
To refresh with tears such withered skin
To gain in tasted touch, a touched taste of sweet.
Oh, never did I...

AuricularesI am from Earbuds, from Skull candy and comfort of a small foam bud.
I am from the home of powerful voices, restrictions, and order.
I am from Sunday morning cleaning and warm cooked meals,...
